"Huasipungo" by Jorge Icaza
“Like many writers of his generation, Jorge Icaza saw in himself and in his works a final consequence of the transformations that liberalism had introduced in Ecuador in the first decades of the century. With his work, he seems to join those who tried to make literature a manifestation of class struggle, a proletarian art at the service of the international proletariat, whose best representatives in the Ecuadorian highlands were the Indians and other popular sectors. "Huasipungo" is a fundamental piece in the development of the Andean indigenist narrative."
